Not sure what to do in the workshop today? Try some of the following:
1. Surf the resources links on the Blogs, Wikis, Podcasts Oh My session wiki. Read some of the blogs created by students and teachers, visit some of the wikis to see how classrooms from all parts of the world collaborate on a project, etc.
2. Comment on another on a teacher's blog post and/or a student's blog post. People love comments on their blogs-it is a great way to start building connections!
6. Share your blog address, wiki address, and any other contact information on the session participant page.

BrainPlop: Brainstorm some ways in which you could use a blog with your students and/or in your teaching:
1.I would like to set up 2 different blog postings for 5th and 6th graders. With 5th graders, I would like to post a famous painting that would go along with the artist we are currently studying. They can reflect, comment and critique the paintings while learning more about the artist and their work. With 6th grade, I would like to focus on current news articles in the artworld. I can put in a link to a story and provide questions to generate a discussion about the article.
BrainPlop: Brainstorm some ways in which you could use podcasts with your students and/or in your teaching:
1. I don't know if podcasts would work for this idea, but I definitely want to use Voicethread to create a student critique on 7th grade monoprints. This would be a great way for them to develop langauage and vocabulary for talking about their own and others works of art!
